I’ve lost count the amount of times people have said to me “why arn’t these guys signed?” or “these guys should be huge”, I’m referring of course to the band that kicked off the second half, Captain Horizon. Unique, talented, entertaining, spell binding are all words that are used to describe the Birmingham based outfit. A blend of rock, indie, prog all go into the mix with these guys and you end up with powerful emotive songs like Patch and Torn Up My World, what a way to kick off part 2!

Captain Horizon, as RTM has said before, are pound for pound, perhaps the best unsigned band in Brum. Certainly live shows such as this seem to be getting better and better for the boys.

Best described, if you will, as a type of alt-rock Pink Floyd, they have taken to weaving giant songs full of hooks and choruses to tempt us all. Previous single “Angels and Vampires” was a giant leap forward and is played here along with “Here I Stand.” All of which bodes well for the release of their new album “The Lights Of Distorted Science” which is out in December.

Captain Horizon just blew my mind, rocked my world and touched the metal core of my soul to such an extent that words are hard to come by. In fact, I suspect that no words can fully do justice to the sheer metallic magnitude of their set. If ever there was a band on whose music I’m hooked on first listen, it’s Captain Horizon. This was one of those occasions on which I was truly awestruck by the scale of the immensity of metal proficiency, beauty and absolute passion so evident in their music. Captain Horizon have command of the term ‘metal’ and it’s criminal that they’re not yet signed! Look out for their EP Radiostasis and their forthcoming album, due out in December.
